Keeping a prison running smoothly and safely takes many things. Good judgement, common
sense and responsibility to name a few. Above all, though, it takes teamwork. And as part of
our Operational Support team you’ll be right at the heart of it.

Working in a busy, professional environment, and operating on a shift-pattern that will
include some night work, you’ll support the day-to-day running of the establishment. Unlike
our prison officers, you’ll have relatively limited contact with prisoners themselves. Instead
your role will see you involved in everything from patrol and gate duties to managing
deliveries, supervising visitors, monitoring phone calls and CCTV.

In return you’ll receive a good salary, Civil Service pension, season ticket loan, the
opportunity to join a 14-month funded apprenticeship qualification and many other benefits.
To see if you have the natural strengths and preferences to become part of the operational
support team, start your application by registering your details and completing our game-
based assessment online. If successful, you will be invited for an interview with us.

If you’re looking for an opportunity to be part of a friendly team that has a big influence on
the day to day operation of a prison, find your perfect role here.

Her Majesty’s Prison and Probation Service (HMPPS) is to here to prevent victims by changing lives.
We work with our partners to carry out the sentences given by the courts, either in custody or the community.
We reduce reoffending by rehabilitating the people in our care through education and employment. The agency is made up of Her Majesty’s Prison Service, the National Probation Service and a headquarters focussed on creating tools and learning.

Careermap connects young people with educational institutions and businesses to make sure that young people understand exactly what choices are available to them when they leave school.

Apprenticeships are an excellent option for those leaving school to train and learn a role in a hands-on environment. Through apprenticeships, young people get the opportunity to work with experienced professionals who have a wealth of knowledge relating to their chosen scheme, so they can provide young people with support and guidance along the way while they also study towards a professional qualification.

There are a wide range of sectors that accept apprentices, including everything from health and beauty to engineering and plumbing. Careermap offers a wide choice of opportunities for young people to choose from.
